10. OUR LIABILTY TO YOU
If the contract we have with you is not performed or is improperly performed by us or our suppliers we will pay you an appropriate compensation if this has affected the enjoyment of your tour. However, we will not be liable where any failure in the performance of the contract is due to you or a third party unconnected with the provision of the tour arrangements set out in the Service Agreement and where the failure is unforeseeable or represents circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised; or an event which we or our suppliers, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall. Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, shall be limited to a maximum amount calculated on the cost of your tour. Our liability will also be limited in accordance with and/or in identical manner to the contractual terms of the companies that provides the transportation for your travel arrangements and the component parts of your tour itinerary. These terms are incorporated into this contract.
This clause does not apply to any excursions or activities that you might purchase yourself whilst on your sports tour.
11. EMERGENCY CONTACT
A 24 hour emergency telephone number will be provided to you.
12. BEHAVIOUR
CMT and associates do not take responsibility for behaviour of any member or any Tour Group. If the behaviour or an individual or individuals is considered likely to cause offence, danger, damage or distress to others, Sports Tour Europe reserves the right at all times to cancel or terminate an individual’s or individuals’ entire booking. We reserve the right to send any individual home on the next available flight at our discretion and at full cost to the individual should we feel this is necessary.

Great care should be taken to follow all laws and rules while on the tour, avoid any damage to public and private property and protect against loss or damage to personal belongings. Damage or breakage caused in hotels, stadium tours, buses and coaches, football clubs or anywhere else on the tour itinerary will be charged to the individual.
13. HEALTH REQUIREMENTS
Please ensure that we receive completed Player Welfare Forms for each participant at least 30 days prior to the tour start date. A link to the digital form will be sent to the GL by email to distribute to the parents/guardians of all participants or the participants themselves if they are over 18.
All information provided to CMT in the Player Welfare Form will be treated in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which the parent/guardian must read and agree to when completing the form.
It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian of the individual who travels on a tour with CMT Ltd. to ensure that he/she is physically and mentally able to travel and participate in the tour activities. Any medical conditions must be stated in the Player Welfare Form prior to departure (including asthma, allergies, physical disabilities etc.). No liability whatsoever will be accepted by CMT Ltd. or its associates in the event of mental or physical ill health of any participant whilst on tour.

15. FIXTURES
We go to great lengths to ensure the reliability and success of every fixture we arrange. While we take every possible CMTp to prevent tour fixtures suffering last minute cancellations, in a very small minority of cases, this can happen. Unless a cancelled fixture is the only fixture of a one-fixture tour and has been cancelled for other reasons than force majeure, we cannot be held responsible for this and it will be considered a minor change. Cancellation of the only fixture on a one fixture tour for reasons other than force majeure will be considered a significant change.
